Vintage Vogue vs Grayish
Where Vintage Vogue belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Grayish is a Sherwin-Williams color. Vintage Vogue reads as green-grey, while Grayish reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Grayish (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Vintage Vogue (LRV 12), a difference of 48 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Vintage Vogue runs green while Grayish is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 44.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Vintage Vogue vs Grayish in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Vintage Vogue and Grayish in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Grayish will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Vintage Vogue would.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Grayish reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Vintage Vogue.
Mudroom
Mudrooms are seen in passing, often under whatever light comes through the door — a context that favors colors with some depth. Grayish returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
